Really? You're actually eager for more consolidation?
I'd really rather that the videogame sector didn't go down the road of distilling into a Big Five oligopoly like every other media sector already has. It usually results in a bunch of lazy incumbent content owners manipulating laws and the market to the detriment of both content creators and consumers. They become so focused on milking the existing model that they stonewall any emerging, potentially superior model until their own inflexibility destroys them.
Give me more, smaller companies, so that they have to rely on the creation of value to make money, instead of relying on market control to generate profits. So they're agile enough to adapt to a changing market rather than being crushed under their own weight.
